Block user groups from downloading resources

[Estefania Borberg]

Hi

I would like to create an user group that can visualize resources but not download them.

Haven't found the way to make possible, have any tried this before? Any advise?

Thanks

@Estefania Here is a way to sort of do what you are asking.

In the User Group settings:

Set “Restrict access to all available resources” 

And

Keep Unset “Can make resource requests”

The download option will be replaced by the text “Request” but will not be actionable. There is no button. This from a UI perspective, is a little disjointed. There are no instructions as to how they can request a resource. In its defense, ResourceSpace is not really a portfolio application. The reason it exists is to deliver resources.
